Registrations are open for the highly anticipated CLIA Cruise Week Europe
2025, taking place in Rotterdam from 12-14 March 2025. Held in Europe’s largest seaport, this premier
event brings together decision-makers from across the cruise industry, along with policymakers,
business partners, and suppliers, to shape the future of cruising.
In partnership with the Municipality of Rotterdam, the Port of Rotterdam, and Cruise Port Rotterdam,

political leaders to showcase the industry’s commitment to sustainable and innovative tourism
solutions. The event will highlight the cruise industry’s contributions to the European maritime sector
and its leading role in environmental and technological advancements.
Cruise Week Europe 2025 will feature an Innovation Showcase, a unique platform for companies
supplying or interested in supplying the cruise industry, with a focus on maritime innovation,
technology, new build and design, and hospitality development. New in 2025 will be a platform to
connect exhibitors with cruise line buyers through scheduled 1:1 appointments, special promotional
sessions introducing new products and services, and a series of workshops for new to cruise sellers.
Jason Liberty, global Chair,of  CLIA, and president and CEO, of Royal Caribbean Group said: “Rotterdam’s
strong maritime heritage makes it an ideal location for Cruise Week Europe 2025. Europe is a leader in
maritime technology development and cruise lines are making enormous investments to lay the
foundations for a future of low to zero carbon fuels. CLIA’s annual European Summit is
an opportune moment for the industry and our partners to come together to discuss joint issues, share
innovations, and agree on a pathway forward.”
Mai Elmar, Executive Director, Cruise Port Rotterdam said: “The cruise sector is thriving with
innovation, and collaboration is key. Cruise Week Europe is an opportunity for our community to come
together to exchange ideas, learn from each other, and showcase the best of our sector. We look
forward to seeing more of the groundbreaking work being done by companies across the maritime
cluster in sustainability and technology at the Innovation Showcase.”
Samuel Maubanc, Director General Europe, CLIA, added: “The cruise sector is a key part of the
European maritime transport industrial cluster. Cruise lines are driving innovation, investing in the
development and use of new technologies and sustainable energy solutions that will apply across the
maritime sector. We look forward to constructive and fruitful debates on how cruise can contribute to
the competitiveness, sustainability, and resilience of Europe’s maritime sector.”
